LaVoi, Ph.D. is a Senior Lecturer in the area of social and behavioral sciences in the School of Kinesiology at the University of Minnesota and the Director of the Tucker Center for Research on Girls & Women in Sport.

June 14, 2023 10:15 AM – 11:15 AM

Magnolia Ballroom

Dr. LaVoi will discuss and outline a new, evidence-based and tested online tool for coaches of girls, Coaching HER. Gender impacts every aspect of coaching, as well as every aspect of girls’ sport experiences. Coaching HER tackles the most central, yet unaddressed issue which negatively impacts girls’ performance, self-perceptions, sport choices and experiences: coaches’ unconscious gender biases and stereotypes. Coaching HER is designed to help get and keep girls in sport through critical drop out ages.

Ani Chroni

Professor

Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences

I possess extensive, versatile and specialized, high-level international experience with sport, academia, performance consulting, and advocacy with sport-related action-based organizations. Through a transnational career, my education and work roles, I developed a solid multi-cultural know-how. I speak English and Greek proficiently, some French, and manage to get by with basic Norwegian (plus polo-Spanish and ski-German).

As a performance psychology consultant, I have provided mental coaching services to athletes, teams, coaches and parents in multiple sports and countries plus done life coaching with the business sector. Lately am supporting retired athletes who struggle in finding their footing in life after sports.

As an academic, I have developed and taught many courses at all high education levels and in coaching education programs. As a researcher I have explored an array of areas and topics (mostly qualitatively) like elite athletes transitions to coaching, elite coaches’ stress, organizational support for elite coaches, the national and sport cultures blending in sport, sexual harassment in sport, self-talk, cognitive hardiness, competitiveness, and on-site coping. I am experienced with grant writing and was the first director of the Sport and Social Sciences Research Group established at Inland Norway University (2020-22).

I have an alpine ski background as an athlete and coach, and still serve as a Technical Delegate official for the FIS at international alpine races. I am also serving on AASP Committees and reviewer boards of peer-reviewed journals. I am the Past-President of WomenSport International, an NGO with special consultative status for the United Nations’ ECOSOC and the representative of WSI at the Permanent Consulting Counsel of CIGEPS (UNESCO) since 2014.
